Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Effects of eplontersen on symptoms of autonomic neuropathy in hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis: secondary analysis from the NEURO-TTRansform trial.
The NEURO-TTRansform trial showed that after 66 weeks of treatment, eplontersen significantly reduced neuropathic impairment and improved quality of life (QoL) in patients with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN). In this secondary analysis from NEURO-TTRansform, autonomic impairment, and the impact of eplontersen on autonomic impairment progression was evaluated through 85 weeks in patients randomised to eplontersen (n = 144) versus external placebo (n = 60; through Week 66 from the NEURO-TTR trial). ⋯ Eplontersen demonstrated benefit across multiple measures of autonomic impairment known to progress rapidly and negatively impact QoL without treatment, without deterioration in nutritional status.

Multicenter Study
PRX004 in variant amyloid transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis: results of a phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation study.
The investigational monoclonal antibody PRX004 is designed to specifically target and deplete TTR amyloid. Here, we report on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary clinical activity of PRX004 in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis. ⋯ PRX004 was well tolerated in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis and demonstrated potential clinical activity. A phase 2 randomised controlled trial in ATTR cardiomyopathy is ongoing (NCT05442047).
